Wooden Slingshot/Catapult

Rambone wooden catapult

This is my wooden version of the famous Rambone catapult made by Jorg Sprave. It is extremely comfortable to hold and so warm in the hand. I prefer it to the Aluminium Rambone Catapult I made which is great because it was so much easier to make!! I cannot recall immediately now what wood I made this from, I’ll look back to see if I can find some photos of the making process for the catapult. It wasn’t difficult. The bands are Theraband gold and the pouch was some leather from an old wallet.

Working with wood is a brilliant way of making a catapult, its a lot easier to shape it to your own grip making for the most ergonomic catapult which is a joy to hold.
